[Verse 1]
Sunrise sneaks through the screen door flap
Sleeping bag hair
Crooked ball cap
Name tag hanging on a wrinkled shirt
Bare feet racing through the pine and dirt
[Pre-Chorus]
We don’t know the stories yet
But we’re laughing like we do
Bruised-up knees and silhouettes
All I needed was this view
[Chorus]
This is the best summer we ever had
Smoke in our clothes
And we’re so glad
Voices cracked from singing loud
Hearts so full we can’t calm down (oh-oh)
Catching these days like fireflies in a jar
Best summer
Best summer by far
[Verse 2]
Canoes glide quiet on a glassy lake
Leaning so far that the boats all shake
Water fights
Someone drops their oar
We paddle zigzag
Still want more
[Pre-Chorus]
Marshmallows melting
Sticky hands
Stories drifting through the dark
Every wish is changing plans
Every spark becomes a spark
[Chorus]
This is the best summer we ever had
Smoke in our clothes
And we’re so glad
Voices cracked from singing loud
Hearts so full we can’t calm down (hey!)
Catching these days like fireflies in a jar
Best summer
Best summer by far
[Bridge]
New friends carved in a wooden bench
Inside jokes in a made-up French
Stargazing flat on the splintered dock
Telling the time by the chipmunk clock
[Chorus]
This is the best summer we ever had
Smoke in our clothes
And we’re so glad
Voices cracked from singing loud
Hearts so full we can’t calm down (oh-oh)
Catching these days like fireflies in a jar
Best summer
Best summer by far
